Only Me.

Only Me.

It is another lonely night where I am stuck inside of my head, wishing somebody was here beside me in this bed This occurs constantly and never seems to go away You are leaving me here tonight though I wish I could make you stay

In the end there is me, only me A naked soul trying to find my way home but I feel lost, not knowing how to find my road Can somebody help me stay afloat?

I am drowning on my own trying to get by, watching the world pass me by Sometimes I do not think that it is worth trying anymore so I think of packing my things to go, leaving behind a closed door

Because in the end there is me, only me

Blue Serenity: Phase 1 Hollow Nights Under Starry Skies #8

written by Dan Roberts

“This is a story of how things were, how everything felt

and all that became of me in the timeframe of that scene

This is a story of how you can change your hues,

embrace the life given to you and turn your blue into serenity"

Blue Serenity is the first poetry book by Dan Roberts which explores a dark period of his life from late teenage years coming into adulthood. It details the many feelings felt when one feels trapped in unfortunate predicaments and follows the process of coming back to oneself, guided by the hope that there is a better life out there after all.

Do You?

Do you ever wake from a nightmare and feel all your bones shake? Do the tears never stop streaming until your eyes turn crimson red? Do you fear yourself potentially aiding in your own destruction? Do you sometimes wish you could create an end to the never-ending days?

I have been there, my sweet darling I know exactly what it is like Do you ever wonder if everything will ever get better than this?

I do

written by Dan Roberts

Hello there!!

I unfortunately did not keep up posting on this account, but if you did want to see more writing and the rest of this project, it is available in its entirety in Instagram!

Paradise.

I hurt myself because I was bored Good mental health can feel like such a chore but I still love myself despite how I behave I just need a little bit of help Don’t we all?

Darling, I cannot ever escape this dark, this hole, this unpredictable world of unknowns but I pray everyday to awake in a different state

I have spent a lifetime searching for a paradise A place bright blue and true that is so hard to find It turns out paradise was a gorgeous lie but I am holding onto hope I will find it in time I lay within the intentions I send out to the sky, imagining a vision of true paradise

I will find it in time
